US Immigration from Vietnam

Hi all,

My fianc had an k1 interview on the 29th of September in HCMC. Approved, visa in hand. Does anyone knows if she can come now, without being fully vaccinated for Covid?

My wife had a 221g appointment scheduled in June and canceled 2 days before,

I have tried to contact the Consulate with questions.

I received a reply to the first one in June, basic info, but no answer to my question,

since then I sent 2 more emails but haven't even received a reply. I'm just wondering when and how they will begin to interview, now that the consulate is supposed to be resuming operations, thanks

Hello All,

My wife just had an emergency interview at HCMC on 10/6/21.

Consulate interview did not last that long, asked a few questions then handed my wife a 221(g) Blue form asking for 15 years of history (did not keep passport).

Siblings name, and birthdate

15 years of residence information

15 years of employment history

15 years of traveling history (visited other countries)

Have ever held another passport

child name, and birthdate

All spouses current and previous with birthdate

5 years of phone numbers

Social Media account 5 years

Phone number used past 5 years

name, visa type, and birthdate

Do we simply just provide the answers for these questions?

Should we include a letter describing when our relationship start until present?

My wife and I fear if we did not provide sufficient information, our visa will be denied.

Previously on the i-130 and the ds-260 form, we only included 5 years of history.

My wife traveled to Russia for tourism purposes and overstayed for 10 months from 05/10 - 03/11 (do we need a police certificate)?

I have confirmed with the civil document, only if she ever lived in another country more than 12 months or currently reside in another country more than 6 month then we will need to provide a police certificate from that country.

Anyone can provide insight to this matter is greatly appreciated.

We have read a lot of people stating the CO does not believe our relationship hence the extended background check.

We just received the notice from NVC that they will notify the HoChi Minh Embassy to schedule my wifes interview. The new Oct. 1 requirement mandates 2 COVID shots be proven at the Medical Physical. I thought I had read that there is a religous or medical exemption but now cannot locate it. Can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance.

Has any one gotten a visa interview at the Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam Consulate since July 2021? Can not understand why after the lockdown they are still not granting interviews?
